PFformer: A Position-Free Transformer Variant for Extreme-Adaptive Multivariate Time Series Forecasting
Venue: arXiv cs.LG 2025
Year: 2025

Multivariate time series (MTS) forecasting is vital in fields like weather, energy, and finance. However, despite deep learning advancements, traditional Transformer-based models often diminish the effect of crucial inter-variable relationships by singular token embedding and struggle to effectively capture complex dependencies among variables, especially in datasets with rare or extreme events. These events create significant imbalances and lead to high skewness, complicating accurate prediction efforts. This study introduces PFformer, a position-free Transformer-based model designed for single-target MTS forecasting, specifically for challenging datasets characterized by extreme variability. PFformer integrates two novel embedding strategies: Enhanced Feature-based Embedding (EFE) and Auto-Encoder-based Embedding (AEE). EFE effectively encodes inter-variable dependencies by mapping related sequence subsets to high-dimensional spaces without positional constraints, enhancing the encoder's functionality. PFformer shows superior forecasting accuracy without the traditional limitations of positional encoding in MTS modeling. We evaluated PFformer across four challenging datasets, focusing on two key forecasting scenarios: long sequence prediction for 3 days ahead and rolling predictions every four hours to reflect real-time decision-making processes in water management. PFformer demonstrated remarkable improvements, from 20% to 60%, compared with state-of-the-art models.

NutriGen: Personalized Meal Plan Generator Leveraging Large Language Models to Enhance Dietary and Nutritional Adherence
Venue: arXiv cs.AI 2025
Year: 2025

Maintaining a balanced diet is essential for overall health, yet many individuals struggle with meal planning due to nutritional complexity, time constraints, and lack of dietary knowledge. Personalized food recommendations can help address these challenges by tailoring meal plans to individual preferences, habits, and dietary restrictions. However, existing dietary recommendation systems often lack adaptability, fail to consider real-world constraints such as food ingredient availability, and require extensive user input, making them impractical for sustainable and scalable daily use. To address these limitations, we introduce NutriGen, a framework based on large language models (LLM) designed to generate personalized meal plans that align with user-defined dietary preferences and constraints. By building a personalized nutrition database and leveraging prompt engineering, our approach enables LLMs to incorporate reliable nutritional references like the USDA nutrition database while maintaining flexibility and ease-of-use. We demonstrate that LLMs have strong potential in generating accurate and user-friendly food recommendations, addressing key limitations in existing dietary recommendation systems by providing structured, practical, and scalable meal plans. Our evaluation shows that Llama 3.1 8B and GPT-3.5 Turbo achieve the lowest percentage errors of 1.55\% and 3.68\%, respectively, producing meal plans that closely align with user-defined caloric targets while minimizing deviation and improving precision. Additionally, we compared the performance of DeepSeek V3 against several established models to evaluate its potential in personalized nutrition planning.
Deep Learning of the Evolution Operator Enables Forecasting of Out-of-Training Dynamics in Chaotic Systems
Venue: arXiv cs.LG 2025
Year: 2025

We demonstrate that a deep learning emulator for chaotic systems can forecast phenomena absent from training data. Using the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky and beta-plane turbulence models, we evaluate the emulator through scenarios probing the fundamental phenomena of both systems: forecasting spontaneous relaminarisation, capturing initialisation of arbitrary chaotic states, zero-shot prediction of dynamics with parameter values outside of the training range, and characterisation of dynamical statistics from artificially restricted training datasets. Our results show that deep learning emulators can uncover emergent behaviours and rare events in complex systems by learning underlying mathematical rules, rather than merely mimicking observed patterns.
Continuous Adversarial Text Representation Learning for Affective Recognition
Venue: arXiv cs.CL 2025
Year: 2025

While pre-trained language models excel at semantic understanding, they often struggle to capture nuanced affective information critical for affective recognition tasks. To address these limitations, we propose a novel framework for enhancing emotion-aware embeddings in transformer-based models. Our approach introduces a continuous valence-arousal labeling system to guide contrastive learning, which captures subtle and multi-dimensional emotional nuances more effectively. Furthermore, we employ a dynamic token perturbation mechanism, using gradient-based saliency to focus on sentiment-relevant tokens, improving model sensitivity to emotional cues. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed framework outperforms existing methods, achieving up to 15.5% improvement in the emotion classification benchmark, highlighting the importance of employing continuous labels. This improvement demonstrates that the proposed framework is effective in affective representation learning and enables precise and contextually relevant emotional understanding.
PersonaBench: Evaluating AI Models on Understanding Personal Information through Accessing (Synthetic) Private User Data
Venue: arXiv cs.AI 2025
Year: 2025

Personalization is critical in AI assistants, particularly in the context of private AI models that work with individual users. A key scenario in this domain involves enabling AI models to access and interpret a user's private data (e.g., conversation history, user-AI interactions, app usage) to understand personal details such as biographical information, preferences, and social connections. However, due to the sensitive nature of such data, there are no publicly available datasets that allow us to assess an AI model's ability to understand users through direct access to personal information. To address this gap, we introduce a synthetic data generation pipeline that creates diverse, realistic user profiles and private documents simulating human activities. Leveraging this synthetic data, we present PersonaBench, a benchmark designed to evaluate AI models' performance in understanding personal information derived from simulated private user data. We evaluate Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines using questions directly related to a user's personal information, supported by the relevant private documents provided to the models. Our results reveal that current retrieval-augmented AI models struggle to answer private questions by extracting personal information from user documents, highlighting the need for improved methodologies to enhance personalization capabilities in AI.
Are LLMs Ready for Practical Adoption for Assertion Generation?
Venue: arXiv cs.LG 2025
Year: 2025

Assertions have been the de facto collateral for simulation-based and formal verification of hardware designs for over a decade. The quality of hardware verification, i.e., detection and diagnosis of corner-case design bugs, is critically dependent on the quality of the assertions. With the onset of generative AI such as Transformers and Large-Language Models (LLMs), there has been a renewed interest in developing novel, effective, and scalable techniques of generating functional and security assertions from design source code. While there have been recent works that use commercial-of-the-shelf (COTS) LLMs for assertion generation, there is no comprehensive study in quantifying the effectiveness of LLMs in generating syntactically and semantically correct assertions. In this paper, we first discuss AssertionBench from our prior work, a comprehensive set of designs and assertions to quantify the goodness of a broad spectrum of COTS LLMs for the task of assertion generations from hardware design source code. Our key insight was that COTS LLMs are not yet ready for prime-time adoption for assertion generation as they generate a considerable fraction of syntactically and semantically incorrect assertions. Motivated by the insight, we propose AssertionLLM, a first of its kind LLM model, specifically fine-tuned for assertion generation. Our initial experimental results show that AssertionLLM considerably improves the semantic and syntactic correctness of the generated assertions over COTS LLMs.
Can LLM Assist in the Evaluation of the Quality of Machine Learning Explanations?
Venue: arXiv cs.HC 2025
Year: 2025

EXplainable machine learning (XML) has recently emerged to address the mystery mechanisms of machine learning (ML) systems by interpreting their 'black box' results. Despite the development of various explanation methods, determining the most suitable XML method for specific ML contexts remains unclear, highlighting the need for effective evaluation of explanations. The evaluating capabilities of the Transformer-based large language model (LLM) present an opportunity to adopt LLM-as-a-Judge for assessing explanations. In this paper, we propose a workflow that integrates both LLM-based and human judges for evaluating explanations. We examine how LLM-based judges evaluate the quality of various explanation methods and compare their evaluation capabilities to those of human judges within an iris classification scenario, employing both subjective and objective metrics. We conclude that while LLM-based judges effectively assess the quality of explanations using subjective metrics, they are not yet sufficiently developed to replace human judges in this role.
EndoPBR: Material and Lighting Estimation for Photorealistic Surgical Simulations via Physically-based Rendering
Venue: arXiv cs.CV 2025
Year: 2025

The lack of labeled datasets in 3D vision for surgical scenes inhibits the development of robust 3D reconstruction algorithms in the medical domain. Despite the popularity of Neural Radiance Fields and 3D Gaussian Splatting in the general computer vision community, these systems have yet to find consistent success in surgical scenes due to challenges such as non-stationary lighting and non-Lambertian surfaces. As a result, the need for labeled surgical datasets continues to grow. In this work, we introduce a differentiable rendering framework for material and lighting estimation from endoscopic images and known geometry. Compared to previous approaches that model lighting and material jointly as radiance, we explicitly disentangle these scene properties for robust and photorealistic novel view synthesis. To disambiguate the training process, we formulate domain-specific properties inherent in surgical scenes. Specifically, we model the scene lighting as a simple spotlight and material properties as a bidirectional reflectance distribution function, parameterized by a neural network. By grounding color predictions in the rendering equation, we can generate photorealistic images at arbitrary camera poses. We evaluate our method with various sequences from the Colonoscopy 3D Video Dataset and show that our method produces competitive novel view synthesis results compared with other approaches. Furthermore, we demonstrate that synthetic data can be used to develop 3D vision algorithms by finetuning a depth estimation model with our rendered outputs. Overall, we see that the depth estimation performance is on par with fine-tuning with the original real images.
WorldModelBench: Judging Video Generation Models As World Models
Venue: arXiv cs.CV 2025
Year: 2025

Video generation models have rapidly progressed, positioning themselves as video world models capable of supporting decision-making applications like robotics and autonomous driving. However, current benchmarks fail to rigorously evaluate these claims, focusing only on general video quality, ignoring important factors to world models such as physics adherence. To bridge this gap, we propose WorldModelBench, a benchmark designed to evaluate the world modeling capabilities of video generation models in application-driven domains. WorldModelBench offers two key advantages: (1) Against to nuanced world modeling violations: By incorporating instruction-following and physics-adherence dimensions, WorldModelBench detects subtle violations, such as irregular changes in object size that breach the mass conservation law - issues overlooked by prior benchmarks. (2) Aligned with large-scale human preferences: We crowd-source 67K human labels to accurately measure 14 frontier models. Using our high-quality human labels, we further fine-tune an accurate judger to automate the evaluation procedure, achieving 8.6% higher average accuracy in predicting world modeling violations than GPT-4o with 2B parameters. In addition, we demonstrate that training to align human annotations by maximizing the rewards from the judger noticeably improve the world modeling capability.

Indoor Localization for Autonomous Robot Navigation
Venue: arXiv cs.RO 2025
Year: 2025

Indoor positioning systems (IPSs) have gained attention as outdoor navigation becomes prevalent in everyday life. Research is being actively conducted on how indoor smartphone navigation can be accomplished and improved using received signal strength indication (RSSI) and machine learning (ML). IPSs have more use cases that need further exploration, and we aim to explore using IPSs for the indoor navigation of an autonomous robot. We collected a dataset and trained models to test on a robot. We also developed an A* path-planning algorithm so that our robot could navigate itself using predicted directions. After testing different network structures, our robot was able to successfully navigate corners around 50 percent of the time. The findings of this paper indicate that using IPSs for autonomous robots is a promising area of future research.
Measuring Determinism in Large Language Models for Software Code Review
Venue: arXiv cs.SE 2025
Year: 2025

Large Language Models (LLMs) promise to streamline software code reviews, but their ability to produce consistent assessments remains an open question. In this study, we tested four leading LLMs -- GPT-4o mini, GPT-4o, Claude 3.5 Sonnet, and LLaMA 3.2 90B Vision -- on 70 Java commits from both private and public repositories. By setting each model's temperature to zero, clearing context, and repeating the exact same prompts five times, we measured how consistently each model generated code-review assessments. Our results reveal that even with temperature minimized, LLM responses varied to different degrees. These findings highlight a consideration about the inherently limited consistency (test-retest reliability) of LLMs -- even when the temperature is set to zero -- and the need for caution when using LLM-generated code reviews to make real-world decisions.
CSubBT: A Self-Adjusting Execution Framework for Mobile Manipulation System
Venue: arXiv cs.RO 2025
Year: 2025

With the advancements in modern intelligent technologies, mobile robots equipped with manipulators are increasingly operating in unstructured environments. These robots can plan sequences of actions for long-horizon tasks based on perceived information. However, in practice, the planned actions often fail due to discrepancies between the perceptual information used for planning and the actual conditions. In this paper, we introduce the {\itshape Conditional Subtree} (CSubBT), a general self-adjusting execution framework for mobile manipulation tasks based on Behavior Trees (BTs). CSubBT decomposes symbolic action into sub-actions and uses BTs to control their execution, addressing any potential anomalies during the process. CSubBT treats common anomalies as constraint non-satisfaction problems and continuously guides the robot in performing tasks by sampling new action parameters in the constraint space when anomalies are detected. We demonstrate the robustness of our framework through extensive manipulation experiments on different platforms, both in simulation and real-world settings.
$R^4$: A Racetrack Register File with Runtime Software Reconfiguration
Venue: arXiv cs.AR 2025
Year: 2025

Arising disruptive memory technologies continuously make their way into the memory hierarchy at various levels. Racetrack memory is one promising candidate for future memory due to the overall low energy consumption, access latency and high endurance. However, the access dependent shift property of racetrack memory can make it easily a poor candidate, when the number of shifts is not properly reduced. Therefore, we explore how a register file can be constructed by using non-volatile racetrack memories with a properly reduced number of shifts. Our proposed architecture allows allocating registers in a horizontal or vertical allocation mode, where registers are either scattered across nanotracks or allocated along tracks. In this paper, we propose a dynamic approach, where the allocation can be altered at any access between horizontal and vertical. Control flow graph based static program analysis with simulation-based branch probabilities supplies crucially important recommendations for the dynamic allocation, which are applied at runtime. Experimental evaluation, including a custom gem5 simulation setup, reveals the need for this type of runtime reconfiguration. While the performance in terms of energy consumption, for instance, can be comparably high as SRAM when no runtime reconfiguration is done, the dynamic approach reduces it by up to $\approx 6\times$.
Multimodal Learning for Just-In-Time Software Defect Prediction in Autonomous Driving Systems
Venue: arXiv cs.SE 2025
Year: 2025

In recent years, the rise of autonomous driving technologies has highlighted the critical importance of reliable software for ensuring safety and performance. This paper proposes a novel approach for just-in-time software defect prediction (JIT-SDP) in autonomous driving software systems using multimodal learning. The proposed model leverages the multimodal transformers in which the pre-trained transformers and a combining module deal with the multiple data modalities of the software system datasets such as code features, change metrics, and contextual information. The key point for adapting multimodal learning is to utilize the attention mechanism between the different data modalities such as text, numerical, and categorical. In the combining module, the output of a transformer model on text data and tabular features containing categorical and numerical data are combined to produce the predictions using the fully connected layers. Experiments conducted on three open-source autonomous driving system software projects collected from the GitHub repository (Apollo, Carla, and Donkeycar) demonstrate that the proposed approach significantly outperforms state-of-the-art deep learning and machine learning models regarding evaluation metrics. Our findings highlight the potential of multimodal learning to enhance the reliability and safety of autonomous driving software through improved defect prediction.
SkyStore: Cost-Optimized Object Storage Across Regions and Clouds
Venue: arXiv cs.DC 2025
Year: 2025

Modern applications span multiple clouds to reduce costs, avoid vendor lock-in, and leverage low-availability resources in another cloud. However, standard object stores operate within a single cloud, forcing users to manually manage data placement across clouds, i.e., navigate their diverse APIs and handle heterogeneous costs for network and storage. This is often a complex choice: users must either pay to store objects in a remote cloud, or pay to transfer them over the network based on application access patterns and cloud provider cost offerings. To address this, we present SkyStore, a unified object store that addresses cost-optimal data management across regions and clouds. SkyStore introduces a virtual object and bucket API to hide the complexity of interacting with multiple clouds. At its core, SkyStore has a novel TTL-based data placement policy that dynamically replicates and evicts objects according to application access patterns while optimizing for lower cost. Our evaluation shows that across various workloads, SkyStore reduces the overall cost by up to 6x over academic baselines and commercial alternatives like AWS multi-region buckets. SkyStore also has comparable latency, and its availability and fault tolerance are on par with standard cloud offerings. We release the data and code of SkyStore at https://github.com/skyplane-project/skystore.
Neuro-Symbolic Learning for Galois Groups: Unveiling Probabilistic Trends in Polynomials
Venue: arXiv cs.LG 2025
Year: 2025

This paper presents a neurosymbolic approach to classifying Galois groups of polynomials, integrating classical Galois theory with machine learning to address challenges in algebraic computation. By combining neural networks with symbolic reasoning we develop a model that outperforms purely numerical methods in accuracy and interpretability. Focusing on sextic polynomials with height $\leq 6$, we analyze a database of 53,972 irreducible examples, uncovering novel distributional trends, such as the 20 sextic polynomials with Galois group $C_6$ spanning just seven invariant-defined equivalence classes. These findings offer the first empirical insights into Galois group probabilities under height constraints and lay the groundwork for exploring solvability by radicals. Demonstrating AI's potential to reveal patterns beyond traditional symbolic techniques, this work paves the way for future research in computational algebra, with implications for probabilistic conjectures and higher degree classifications.
